The Psychology of a Heinous Killer: Power, Control, and a Disturbing Family Dynamic | Summer Roney

Forensic psychologist Dr. John Matthias joins Lauren Matthias to examine the disturbing questions surrounding Jacob “Jake” Johnson, who pleaded guilty to the aggravated murder of Summer Roney. What can his past relationships reveal about power, control, and possessiveness? How might family enmeshment help us understand his relationship dynamics? And what does the discovery of alleged CSAM mean—and what can it tell us about his interests? Hidden True Crime explores the reported evidence, warning signs of abuse, and psychological questions that remain in the Summer Roney case, known as the Utah House of Horrors.
